Dezip is something in SDK that low-pass filters the signal from the fader to the actual control. So when a fader is moved, no clicks or jumps are heared, and for example MIDI control sound smooth. This is a trade-off for DSP use: dezipping uses a little DSP, so it's up to the developer weither he considers it important to spend DSP cycles on it. Sometimes it's usefull, sometimes it's more opportune to constrain the DSP usage. IIRC, j9k also has a micromixer that isn't dezipped, which would be very light on DSP, but which can click when faders are moved.
On the particular device you show, the amount of dezipping can be controlled - though that's very exceptional. Most is done 'under the hood'...
